    Morning losers!

    Weighed in this morning and am 261lb ( 18 stone 9) am 5'5" so makes my BMI 43.4. It'd be nice to get to under 40 during this challenge so I can lose the morbidly obese but might be a bit of an ask as I need 3lb a week and I'm slowing down now. Found a spreadsheet from January 2009 on my PC when I was 23 stone 6 with a BMI of 53 and super morbidly obese. Never again!

    Good luck to all

    Hi Rosy,

    My first weigh in on the new challenge.

    Am down 0.4lb from 143 to 142.6. -- :yawn: not exactly earth shattering, but Stroutman (the "lean people getting leaner" guru on this forum) says that's good going at my range, so will take my 'almost half a pound' loss and mustn't grumble... :grumble:

    Hi, I am new to this site and would like to join your challenge. I weighed in this morning at 176lbs and I am 5'8'' tall. I live in Croydon so that makes me a Southern Softy. Looking forward to posting a lighter weight next Saturday.

    I know my diet changed dramatically this week, the previous week was fish & chips, Indian, Dominos and a Chines,e but I'm a tad shocked, I can see the difference in my stomach and face.

    I've been eating under my calorie count every day except one and have done 3x 15mins, 1x 26mins and 1x 40 mins on the treadmill and have lost a total of...

    13.4lbs

    Down from 202lbs to 189.4lbs (5'11")

    Unfortunately, no weight loss for me this week. I stayed the same at 166lb. My BMI dropped but not enough for a lb loss.

    Will work hard next week, I don't want to let the southern softies down.

    I would love to join in, and am as Southern as you get (on the South Coast), but I don't own any scales, so a weigh in is kind of impossible for me!

    I promise I will lose LOADS, though!

    Ian that is fantastic well done!

    Im changing my weigh in day to Sundays as another challenge I have joined starts tomorrow and since I normally weigh in Monday - just in case I have lost weight Id like to start from that rather than last weeks weight :)

    So will update tomorrow if I have lost anything or not. TOMs here at the mo though and I tend to weigh more when he is visiting! grrrrrrrr!!!!!!

    Well done to everyone who is losing keep up the good work!
